[Singapore] - Dr Kurup of Mount E: I think we are in this funk because of the unvaccinated

[UltimaOnline]

Dr Kurup said plainly: "I think we are in this funk because of the unvaccinated."

While people infected with the Delta variant tend to have higher viral loads, he said: "Viral loads in vaccinated patients seem to reduce quickly, so the risk of cross-transmission is likely limited. The key is to go all out and vaccinate."

Dr Kurup, who has been caring for Covid-19 patients over the past year, said his clinical experience managing these Covid-19 cases "gives me great conviction and faith in the vaccines' ability to prevent severe illness".

Those who had been vaccinated generally had few, if any, symptoms.

CDC says the vaccinated are the superspreaders now. Kurup is out of date.

A sobering scientific analysis published Friday found that three-quarters of the people infected during an explosive coronavirus outbreak fueled by the delta variant were fully vaccinated. The report on the Massachusetts cases, from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, offers key evidence bolstering the hypothesis that vaccinated people can spread the more transmissible variant and may be a factor in the summer surge of infections.

The data, detailed in the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, helped persuade agency scientists to reverse recommendations on mask-wearing and advise that vaccinated individuals wear masks in indoor public settings in some circumstances.
Critically, the study found that vaccinated individuals carried as much virus in their noses as unvaccinated individuals, strongly suggesting that vaccinated people could spread the virus to others. The CDC was criticized this week for changing its mask guidance without publishing the data it relied on. The report released Friday contains some of that data.

I prefer the advice of Dr Kukujiao than Dr Kurup. Dr Kukujiao says not to take any unproven vaccine.

It won't be as desperate as when they get hauled for genocide trials. Nuremberg 2.0.

He said something Loong not dare to say, or.... something stupid where Loong does not want to say.

 

[mahjongking]

maybe cheebye loong pay him to say

Kurup should ask ALL his fellow medical practitioners to vaccinate first because there is a sizeable number of doctors who refuse the mRNA vaccine.

Kurup cannot be smarter than these other doctors, no?
